Caryn Ann Harlos, the elected secretary of the Libertarian National Committee (LNC)—the national governing board of the Libertarian Party (L.P.)—filed a lawsuit last week against the LNC and its elected chair, Angela McArdle, for being disqualifyingly disloyal to the country's third-largest political party.
Harlos charged in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia that McArdle, who was reelected this May to a second two-year term as chair, "has violated her fundamental fiduciary duties and duties of loyalty to…the Libertarian Party…through self-dealing, divided loyalties, outright violations of core principles of the Party, diversion of Party assets to unrelated third-parties, misuse of Party assets, the ordering payments of tens of thousands of the Party's funds in self-interested transactions, and the failure to disclose and/or to timely disclose clear conflicts."
